Chapter 147 The Decision in My Heart
Chapter 147 The Decision in My Heart
Li Lanzhen and a few children chased towards the cave.
When they arrived at the cave, it was full of soldiers, holding torches, swords, and shouting loudly.
"Come out! Come out quickly, or we will throw torches and burn you all to death in the cave."
Li Lanzhen listened attentively but heard no children crying or shouting.
She wondered if these children had been killed.
If this were the case, the officers and soldiers outside would not continue shouting and threatening them to come out.
Seeing Shitou and a few others rushing over without hesitation to fight with the officers and soldiers to rescue their friends, she hurriedly grabbed them.
"Hurry up and get down. If you rush down, not only will you fail to save your companions, you will also be captured."
Upon hearing this, the three children squatted down unwillingly and lay with her in the grass not far away.
Li Lanzhen looked through the gaps in the bushes and observed the officers and soldiers surrounding the cave. There were nine of them in total, and they should have a small leader.
They all held torches and brandished swords.
Li Lanzhen wondered what chances she would have if she rushed into their midst with an electric baton and defeated them.
At this time, the officers and soldiers standing outside the cave lit the thatch and threw the burning thatch into the cave.
If no immediate measures are taken, the officers and soldiers will continue to throw burning straw into the cave.
If this continues, the children hiding in the cave will either be suffocated by the smoke, or they will not be able to bear the smoke and fire and will be caught by the soldiers if they rush out.
She turned her head and looked at the boy next to her.
"Shi Tou, wait a minute and you and your aunt will rush in. Look at this thing, press this button all the way down and then push it directly against their bodies, and they will faint and fall to the ground.
When they fall to the ground, you should leave quickly. Be careful and move quickly. If you cannot kill one person at once, leave immediately, otherwise you will be chopped by the machetes in their hands."
After saying that, he handed Shitou an electric baton and told him how to activate the mechanism.
Shitou felt very curious, but he believed that Li Lanzhen would not harm him, so he nodded solemnly.
"Okay, auntie, I'll rush over with you and rescue our friends!"
Yan Ming saw this and also wanted to go with them to fight for the truth.
"Aunt, I'll go too! One more person means more strength!"
Li Lanzhen said, "You are too young and your strength is too limited to go. You just stay here and take good care of Xiaoyanzi. Just lie here and don't move.
I believe that auntie will rescue your little friend."
Li Lanzhen held a small electric baton in her left hand and a big stick in her right hand!
She felt that the club was easier to use than the sword.
Anyway, she is extremely strong and with one swing of her stick, these bad guys will either be killed or injured.
The small electric baton in the left hand is just for defense.
After getting ready, she said to Shitou, "Follow auntie, we will go over slowly, and then, we will attack suddenly."
The two men crouched and slowly approached the cave.
This group of officers and soldiers, standing outside the cave, heard the children in the cave coughing because of the thick smoke. They raised their heads and laughed, shouting continuously.
"Get out of here now, or I'll burn you like rats!"
Li Lanzhen whispered to Shitou, "Go!"
Two men fired two shells at the officers and soldiers who were standing with their backs to them.
Li Lanzhen first quickly put the electric baton on the waists of the two officers and soldiers.
"Plop. Plop." The two of them fell down.
When the others spotted Li Lanzhen and Shitou, they immediately rushed towards them with swords in hand.
At this time, Li Lianzhen swung the bludgeon and hit the soldier who was rushing in the front hard.
The stone man was small, shuttling among them, holding the electric baton tightly in both hands, and constantly poking the enemy's body with the electric baton in his hand.
When the enemy discovered him and came to chase him, Goudan relied on his small size, fast running speed, and familiarity with the terrain, and after a few turns, they lost all trace.
The soldiers who couldn't find the stone came back cursing and continued to besiege Li Lanzhen.
Li Lanzhen and the soldiers who were besieging her gradually moved away from the cave entrance.
Shi Tou immediately went into the cave and came out soon with several children of all ages.
As soon as the children came out of the cave, they kept coughing.
A soldier saw the children coming out of the cave, so he turned around and wanted to catch him and search the cave.
Stone said to two of the boys.
"Hurry up and take your brothers and sisters to the grove over there. Yan Ming and Xiao Yan Zi are there. Hide first."
They carried their belongings and their younger children and stumbled towards where Yan Ming and Xiao Yanzi were hiding.
Little Stone turned around and faced the soldier who was chasing him.
The soldier knew that Shi Tou had a powerful black stick in his hand.
So he and Shitou circled around each other, not letting Shitou get close to him.
The soldier was slowly approaching the cave, but his feet slipped, his body swayed, and he almost fell.
Shitou seized the opportunity, pounced on him, and hit him hard with the electric baton.
The soldier fell to the ground and didn't move.
Shi Tou immediately chased after her, trying to help Li Lanzhen.
But what he saw was that there was only Li Lanzhen standing there with a bludgeon in her hand, and all the other enemies had fallen to the ground.
Seeing Shitou coming, Li Lanzhen shouted at him.
"Shi Tou, go call our brothers and sisters over, let's get out of here quickly."
Shi Tou was stunned for a moment and then asked excitedly and uncertainly.
"Auntie, auntie, are you saying that you want us to follow you?"
Li Lanzhen nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes! Just follow me. I will take you to a place where you can live a good life."
Li Lianzhen had just made up her mind to take them to Forget-Your-Sorrow Valley.
When she met Shitou and the other two inside the city wall of Youzhou City, she just felt that these children were really pitiful. Such thoughts had not yet occurred to her at that time.
After they came out of Youzhou City, they saw the government soldiers and wanted to burn the children in the cave alive.
Li Lanzhen would feel very uncomfortable.
They are all children. In the era when I lived in, they were still kindergarteners or elementary school students.
At home, they are cared for and loved by their parents, grandparents, and many other relatives like babies...
However, here, they have to look at other people's faces and work hard for three meals a day, and they may not be able to eat every meal.
They also have to face being bullied and even killed by people who are stronger than themselves!
Even the government doesn't take these children seriously.
Li Lanzhen wanted to take them all into the Forget-Your-Trouble Valley.
You have your own space and there is food in it. Why are you still worried that the children will go hungry?
If the village committee does not agree, then she will take these children, several relatives, and those who are willing to follow her out of Wangyou Valley, and then look for the next place to live in these mountains.
